I don't think the B5 fighters are considered as "short-range" in the
show,
especially not when they are quite often referred to as "warships"
rather
than "fighters". OK, so the bigger warships carry them and the term
"fighter" is used often as well, but even so...
How long a time (in the B5 universe, not on the screen) did the longest
battles involving Starfuries last? (Battle of the Line, or possibly
Ivanova's little brawl with the Raiders - or something in Season 3 or
later, which I wouldn't know about)?
